Somethings gotta give Riot.

riot, we buy your stupid shit, we play your game and love your champions. we support you and we give you feedback. SO PLEASE RESPOND IN KIND. give us; your community support and enhance our gaming experience. im tired of raging, feeling toxic, and dealing with a sea of people who all feel the same as me. fix your game!

this past season ive found it hard to constantly play league. every few months, theres a new champ ADDED to the fotm list, they dont even replace the current ones or old ones. theres just a list of champs that are god-teir for the meta and fuck every other champ cause they simply cant keep up. and this is extremely frustrating cause sometimes i just itch to play a certain champ that just isnt doing well at all. i feel like all champions should be effective on the field, not just a select few... and despite popular belief, that breeds more toxicity. some people do the same as me and play someone cause they're trying to just have fun. meanwhile on the enemy team, they have the crisp full lineup of new/current meta champs and they get wrecked, feel cheated, and get upset. statistically, people say awefull things when they're mad. and so back and forth "you're a jerk" and the antagonizing "you mad bro" and shit happens and then somebody gets 5-10 low priority que games depending on who you guys decide was really toxic.

The game itself is toxic and i feel its getting worse. i know allot of people who've been punished by your system who shouldnt have. ive watched trolls trigger people and get them punished when they were the ones being toxic. the tribunal doesnt protect the game or the players. the balancing youve provided for the game breeds more toxic behavior. the lack of attention to certain game mechanics like towers just make this game feel like it's a permanent beta. i love this game and i wanna see it shine and enjoy it more. even if some of the people who read this dissagree with some or even most of what ive said, i guarantee they too have something about the game itself and the community that they dont like.

I invite people to share your thoughts on what you do or dont like in this current iteration of league. if you dont like what i said, cool. have your own oppinion and do your thing. im leaving this here cause i want my voice to be heard that im not ok with the direction of where this game is going and how it feels now... and i only wanna see it get better and for people to feel better about the game.

Do the "Help Us Improve" survey that is on the client dashboard. That's the kind of stuff that they listen to.

Mcniggn4 votes

well, it has been a while since i did the survey. it feels cheesy doing it though.

Marshbout, you're on the wrong subject bro. this post is about stuff we dont like about the game. i didnt ask you or anyone else to agree with me. i asked people to put their concerns about the game down and maybe share ideas to improve. not poke at a post saying "this is completely wrong." there must be something you dont like about league atm, why dont you share with us?

SonicMasters thanks for the support. but dont get off topic either. lets not pick at each other. we do that enough in game. share with us your thoughts on the game.

lets keep it cool people

This is all so wrong. Yi is no longer FOTM, neither is fiora, trundle, udyr, maokai, nautilus, etc.

This entire post is just terrible and taking way to much of riot for granted.

Have you ever payed attention to any non indie gaming companies? they don't say shit to their community outside of patch notes and some half assed reddit posts.

Because other non indie gaming companies know how to manage their game and community.

also with the rant on blizz though; they're pretty dumb... like, they had the best mmo on earth and they threw it away to get ratings by targeting younger audiences. people went from gaining abilities with new levels to losing them. worst thing you can ever do to an rpg... imagine d&d with only 1-3 magic spells and 1-3 physical attacks that any player or creature could ever possibly get. thats blasphemy.

TL;DR i dont respect blizz at all anymore. they're activision puppets.
they would be too dumb and inattentive to include 1337 speak in their filters.

but at least they do try. and they do better with their community and have a much better community.

But really. Riot does far better than most companies who NEVER listen to their community or even tell them things. Check, blizzard, Ubisoft, EA, etc.

The fuck does "managing the community" even mean? A community isn't managed by anything but itself.

They introduce things so it affects the community, unlike RITO. In overwatch they introduced a feature which replaced the words "GG EZ" with funny quotes.

That did fucking nothing to managed the community. Now it's just Gg 3z Gg 3asy etc.

I still play Overwatch and it's just as bad as ever.

It will be that way until Blizzard realizes people can do this.

there are just going to be more and more variants until blizzard gives up.

League, IMO and being here since season 2 has lost all strategic aspect. It's basically get the broken champ or adc fed AF and then once that happens, there is no killing them. ADCs can tank turrets in today's game, team fights last about 3-4 seconds with it being 5 for none most of the time. Snowballing is at an all time high at an earlier time frame. Their whole idea of quicker games has sent shit down the wrong tunnel. Yet, I bet profits are booming. A once "for the people" company has turned into "for the shareholders".

Just a thing - they don't punish"who they think was the most toxic", simply if two people get in a fight, they punish both. Because the rule is not "don't start a fight", it's "don't get in a fight"

Mcniggn1 votes

well i feel better knowing that now. but i have seen trolls walk free before.
i just feel like there could be more preventive actions taken to decrease the toxic interactions between players.

RITO really needs to balance champions

Dauthau2 votes

Those surveys are there to gather the community's opinion on league though :/ Also, champion balance would be nice. A rework for all of the existing champs whose kits are less viable in the game vs. FLOODING the game with new champs.

Mcniggn2 votes

i will agree. the new champs they keep pumping out just have so intrinsic kits that still most of the s1-s3 champs all need reworks just to keep up. like kayle, she needs a new kit. ive seem people who main her do well with her, but she still has no niche in the game anymore. and fresh that is completely true. they tried to increase the flow of combat, and its basically who gets hit first dies. champions feel like paper this meta. turrets seem to not do enough damage/soak up enough damage or properly protect you from early game dives. ive been in too many a game where 5-6 mins in a turret is down. i remember when 10 mins was the minimal time required to fight your lane mates and take their turret. then again bot used to take dragon (which was half the reason of having adc/supp bot to begin with) snowballing is a huge problem. leaves less angles for a team to decide to play for the win. its either split push, or run down mid and ace the enemy team. map control matters a little less then i think it should be. i remember losing games this week as shyv jungle.... would eat my entire jungle and the enemy jungle (cause shyv is fast as fuck) and then push lanes or help people in lane take towers. we'd lose with no inkling of a comeback despite my effort to control the map. and map control used to be a big strategy play. thats why udyr used to be so op.

rito, the old shamps need fixes, not buffs. new champs and some kits need a look at. even though it probably wont change, im getting kinda sick of seeing graves jungle and top.... and my old adc jung main twitch cant keep up at all. and that seems a lil unfair considering he used to be a jungler.

i feel like riot tries to decide the champs we wanna play.
